Wild Orchid off Tortuga Xmas Antigua, Hal, Lin & David. Ahoy there, land on the horizon!

This is the website of Sailing Vessel Wild Orchid, a Malö 42 bluewater cruiser built in Kungsvigen, Sweden and registered in Ipswich, Suffolk.

The Malö 42 is a true bluewater cruiser, with an encapsulated keel, wide teak decks with good gunwales, a relatively narrow stern and small deep aft cockpit. Below decks, the Malö is both spacious and comfortable, with a beautiful wood finish.

She is ideal for living aboard and has been a floating home in the Caribbean since 2002 when, as part of the Blue Water Rally, she crossed the Atlantic.

In here, you should be able to find information on the yacht, crew, previous passages, photo galleries, favourite recipes, latest news or even contact us direct.

For example, why not peruse an account of "A Day On The Macareo River", also known as a day in the life of two retiree's!

David & Hal, off La Gomera, Canary Islands. Up a creek on the Macreo! I think I'll have the lobster!
